Recommended Journey Together

John Boulting, 1943

Star Review

Written, produced, directed, photographed and acted by members of the Royal Air Force – including Richard Attenborough and Jack Watling, who take the lead roles – this is a film “dedicated to the Few who trained the Many”; the members of Flying Training Command.

The journey of the title is that taken by two recruits through their air crew training. Attenborough plays the eager, fresh-faced Dave Wilton, while Watling is the insouciant Johnny Aynesworth. One of them is cut out to be a natural pilot, and with his landings inevitably ending with the plane bouncing down the runway, Dave comes to accept that it isn’t him. Instead, he reluctantly retrains as a navigator and tries to come to terms with his dashed dreams.

A superior wartime training drama, the film also stars Edward G. Robinson as a kindly American instructor, and a young George Cole as the bomb aimer of the Lancaster crew that heads to Berlin on a nerve-testing mission that finally forces Dave to realise the full responsibility of his role.
